Project Overview
When you click a project in the Console sidebar, the main panel opens that project's view. The default screen is Summary, with a tab strip across the top that lets you switch between domain settings, environment variables, deployments, logs, and the rest of the management screens.
Summary #
The Summary tab is the first thing you see when you open a project. It shows:
- Current deployment state — Deploying, Deployed, Failed, or Idle, with any queued deployments indicated by a
+N queuedbadge - Last deployment — the commit, branch, who triggered it, and how long ago
- Health — whether your application is responding on its health check endpoint (if you configured one)
- Quick info — Git repo, branch, framework, primary domain
- Action buttons — Deploy, View Logs, and a three-dot menu for the project actions described below
If the most recent deployment failed, the red “failed” badge in the header is clickable — it opens a side sheet with the full ANSI-coloured deployment log, so you can diagnose without leaving the Console.
Tabs #
The project view has nine tabs across the top. Which ones you see depends on your role:
- Summary — the page you just read about
- Domains — custom domains and SSL
- Nginx Configuration — nginx template and custom snippets
- Environments — environment variables
- Commands — run shell commands inside the project
- Schedulers — Laravel scheduled commands
- Background Jobs — Laravel plugins (Octane, Reverb, Horizon, Nightwatch) and custom background workers
- Logs — nginx and application logs
- Project Settings — Git, framework, deploy triggers, project lifecycle
Each tab loads on demand. Switching back to a tab within a few minutes shows the same data without re-fetching; use Reload (⟳) in the tab header to force a refresh.
Project actions menu #
The three-dot menu in the project header has actions that apply to the whole project rather than to a specific tab:
- Deploy — trigger a manual deployment
- Rollback — roll back to a previous successful deployment (see Deployments)
- Change Server — move the project to a different server (see Change Project Server)
- Reset Deployment Status — clear a stuck deploying state (use sparingly; see Deployments → Reset Deployment Status)
Maintenance Mode lives on the Settings tab as a separate card, not in the three-dot menu.
Bulk operations #
When you have many projects, the Deployments tab in the top bar lets you trigger deploys, rerun failures, or roll back across multiple projects in one go.
Delete a project #
Use the Delete project action on the Settings tab. Deletion is irreversible — files in the project directory on the server are removed along with the project’s history in Depfloy.
